Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I completed my post graduate education from Nova Southeastern University and have been practicing for over 21 years. I am passionate about personal growth and facing those challenges together creates a path for self discovery and change. My goal is to help you reconnect with yourself , your strengths, passions, and skills. Then we will use them as anchors that help you define your purpose and value. Together we work through this process to heal and to create change.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. Together, we will create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

It is my belief that the obstacles and challenges we face are opportunities for us to evolve, heal, and make changes that maximize your potential allowing you to be your best self. I will join you in this process and together we will work towards self discovery, acceptance, and make changes that help you function at your best. I have extensive experience working with individuals struggling with emotional conditions in different areas of their lives at home and at work. Apart from psychotherapy, I have extensive management experience with program development, coaching, building competencies, and performance management. I can assist with workplace issues, life coaching, and empowering you to navigate workplace issues with success.
